A few photos of the workplace, taken last Friday. Yes, students were coming in the library on Friday afternoon!

In honor of
Downton Abbey, I just did
a blog post and a display of G. A. Henty books, which are mentioned in
Downton Abbey. Yep, I got all BBC on this one.

| G.A. Henty books ready to be put on display. Note for my archivist friends: these books already had library markings
and labels. We recently moved them into the Rare Book Collection and
relabeled them. |
After working on the above stuff, I zipped out of my office and went down this staircase:

Only to arrive outside in the Alumni Garden next to the library for the next several photos:

Most people spend the majority of their lives at a work place but few have any pictures to prove that they weren't at home sitting on the couch in their underwear watching tv all day. Pleasant surroundings, thanks for sharing.
